Trump’s crypto stash shrinks $9m as 2025 rout hits MAGA meme and DeFi tokens
Trump’s wallet tied to meme, stablecoin and DeFi tokens saw a $9m drawdown in 2025, after a February exchange transfer and a volatile Ethereum round trip.
Summary
- Blockchain data shows a Trump-linked wallet fell by about $9m in 2025, from mid-2024 highs to much lower year-end levels.
- The address holds a MAGA frog meme coin, a stablecoin and a DeFi banking token, with a large February 2025 transfer to an exchange but no on-chain proof of sale.
- The drawdown coincided with an Ethereum slide, mid-year rally and renewed decline, while Trump’s public crypto stance turned more supportive in his second term.
President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency holdings decreased by $9 million in 2025, according to blockchain analytics data reviewed by Finbold.
The digital assets associated with a public wallet address attributed to Trump declined significantly over the course of the year, falling from mid-2024 highs to substantially lower levels, the data showed.
Trump and crypto
Trump’s stance on cryptocurrencies has shifted notably since his first presidential term, when he rejected digital assets. His return to office has been accompanied by more favorable rhetoric toward the industry, according to reports.
The remaining holdings in the wallet include a meme coin featuring a frog with a MAGA cap, a stablecoin, and a token associated with a decentralized crypto banking platform, blockchain data indicated. Cryptocurrency can be sent to any public wallet address without the recipient’s involvement or consent, meaning Trump may not have directly acquired all tokens in the portfolio.
Blockchain records show the wallet linked to Trump transferred a large amount of cryptocurrency to an exchange in February 2025. While such transfers typically precede sales, blockchain technology cannot confirm whether the assets were actually sold.
The transfer occurred around the same time Eric Trump, the President’s son, posted on social media that early February represented an opportune time to purchase Ethereum. No evidence has emerged linking the two events.
Ethereum declined in early 2025, subsequently rose to a mid-year peak, then entered another downward trend by year’s end, according to market data.
